Kim Novak admiring portrait of Carlotta Valdes at San Francisco’s Palace of the Legion of Honor in Vertigo (1958).Her next destination is the art gallery at the California Palace of the Legion of Honor where she is hypnotized, motionless and trance-like in front of a portrait painting of a woman named Carlotta Valdes [her ancestor’s portrait]. Scottie notices that her single lock of swirling (vertigo-like) hair and hand-corsage bear a striking resemblance to the bouquet and hairstyle in the painting. -- source link
